The 12 Moblin Distributors

Posted on 24 December 2008 by



We’ve been trying to track the announcements over the year but it’s been getting increasingly difficult. In an interview with Intel today I was able to get the definitive list of Linux distribution partners that are working with Intel to distribute Moblin.

Netbook / Nettop OSVs: Ubuntu, Asianux, Xandros, Linpus. Novell, gOS, Mandriva, Pixart, S2C, Turoblinux

MID OSVs: Ubuntu, Asianux, WindRiver

More on the Intel interview soon.
